named getConstantStringLength. This is the common part of StrCpy and
StrLen optimizations and probably several others, yet to be written. It
performs all the validity checks for looking at constant arrays that are
supposed to be null-terminated strings and then computes the actual
length of the string.
* Implement the MemCpyOptimization class. This just turns memcpy of 1, 2, 4
and 8 byte data blocks that are properly aligned on those boundaries into
a load and a store. Much more could be done here but alignment
restrictions and lack of knowledge of the target instruction set prevent
use from doing significantly more. That will have to be delegated to the
code generators as they lower llvm.memcpy calls.

* Change signatures of OptimizeCall and ValidateCalledFunction so they are
non-const, allowing the optimization object to be modified. This is in
support of caching things used across multiple calls.
* Provide two functions for constructing and caching function types
* Modify the StrCatOptimization to cache Function objects for strlen and
llvm.memcpy so it doesn't regenerate them on each call site. Make sure
these are invalidated each time we start the pass.
* Handle both a GEP Instruction and a GEP ConstantExpr
* Add additional checks to make sure we really are dealing with an arary of
sbyte and that all the element initializers are ConstantInt or
ConstantExpr that reduce to ConstantInt.
* Make sure the GlobalVariable is constant!
* Don't use ConstantArray::getString as it can fail and it doesn't give us
the right thing. We must check for null bytes in the middle of the array.
* Use llvm.memcpy instead of memcpy so we can factor alignment into it.
* Don't use void* types in signatures, replace with sbyte* instead.
llvm-svn: 21555
* Don't use std::string for the function names, const char* will suffice
* Allow each CallOptimizer to validate the function signature before
doing anything
* Repeatedly loop over the functions until an iteration produces
no more optimizations. This allows one optimization to insert a
call that is optimized by another optimization.
* Implement the ConstantArray portion of the StrCatOptimization
* Provide a template for the MemCpyOptimization
* Make ExitInMainOptimization split the block, not delete everything
after the return instruction.
(This covers revision 1.3 and 1.4, as the 1.3 comments were botched)
llvm-svn: 21548
* Fix comments at top of file
* Change algorithm for running the call optimizations from n*n to something
closer to n.
* Use a hash_map to store and lookup the optimizations since there will
eventually (or potentially) be a large number of them. This gets lookup
based on the name of the function to O(1). Each CallOptimizer now has a
std::string member named func_name that tracks the name of the function
that it applies to. It is this string that is entered into the hash_map
for fast comparison against the function names encountered in the module.
* Cleanup some style issues pertaining to iterator invalidation
* Don't pass the Function pointer to the OptimizeCall function because if
the optimization needs it, it can get it from the CallInst passed in.
* Add the skeleton for a new CallOptimizer, StrCatOptimizer which will
eventually replace strcat's of constant strings with direct copies.

calls. The pass visits all external functions in the module and determines
if such function calls can be optimized. The optimizations are specific to
the library calls involved. This initial version only optimizes calls to
exit(3) when they occur in main(): it changes them to ret instructions.

Completely rework the 'setcc (cast x to larger), y' code. This code has
the advantage of implementing setcc.ll:test19 (being more general than
the previous code) and being correct in all cases.
This allows us to unxfail 2004-11-27-SetCCForCastLargerAndConstant.ll,
and close PR454.

Make IPSCCP strip off dead constant exprs that are using functions, making
them appear as though their address is taken. This allows us to propagate
some more pool descriptors, lowering the overhead of pool alloc.
llvm-svn: 21363
This pass forward branches through conditions when it can show that the
conditions is either always true or false for a predecessor. This currently
only handles the most simple cases of this, but is successful at threading
across 2489 branches and 65 switch instructions in 176.gcc, which isn't bad.
llvm-svn: 21306
* Loop invariant code does not dominate the loop header, but rather
the end of the loop preheader.
* The base for a reduced GEP isn't a constant unless all of its
operands (preceding the induction variable) are constant.
* Allow induction variable elimination for the simple case after all.
Also made changes recommended by Chris for properly deleting
instructions.
